I've dealt with Amazon for years and very convenient it is too, everything I want or need at the touch of a button. But, I have been concerned about the ethics of the company too and have wondered if there's a sensible alternative.
If you don't use the company yourself - where do you go?

I've boycotted Amazon for years because of the way they treat their staff and their tax evasion antics. I find that you can get most things that are on Amazon from other sources.

Mind you, I'm not a big spender, and, rarely feel any urge to have same day or 24 hour delivery for anything I buy on line.

Funky pigeon much much better than moonpig in my experience, I gave up on moonpig a while ago.

sarahelenwhitney why not try a visor instead of a mask? The decree is for face Covering, it doesn't specify it has to be a mask.
I have ordered a pack of cheap ones (from Amazon) I know, I'm saying I don't care for Amazon, but am still waiting. Sometimes they are not all that speedy.
I don't like masks either, so thought a visor would be acceptable.
I have several outstanding orders from Amazon although the speed of deliveries has usually been remarkable I admit.
